OpenSK FIDO2 Authenticator

Introduction

OpenSK released by Google is a fully open-source implementation for security keys written in Rust that supports both FIDO U2F and FIDO2 standards.

OpenSK is based on the FIDO2 specifications, which combine the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Authentication (WebAuthn) specification and FIDO Alliance’s corresponding Client-to-Authenticator Protocol (CTAP).

The nRF52840 MDK USB Dongle is supported by OpenSK. Taking advantage of the UF2 Bootloader, you can easily program the OpenSK firmware by just copying the .uf2-format image to the flash drive.
